Abstract

A fluid pressure actuator (1) having two pistons (5, 6) and associated toothed rack portions (7, 8) for activating an actuating member (10) via a toothed wheel (9) enables the piston positions to be adjusted, both in the full-stroke position of the actuating member (10) and in its zero-position. To this end, one end-wall (4) of the actuator has provided therein an adjusting screw (16) which engages the one piston (6). The piston, in turn, is provided with an adjusting screw (17) which engages the rack portion (7) of the opposing piston (5). This latter adjusting screw (17) can be reached through a plugged entry port (4d) in the end-wall (4).

Description

A FLUID PRESSURE ACTUATOR HAVING POSITION SETTING MEANS
Field of invention The present invention relates to a fluid pressure actuator, e.g. for regulating valves, of the kind which includes a cylinder which is defined by end-walls and in which two pistons are arranged for movement towards and away from one another, said pistons having arranged thereon axially extending toothed rack portions the teeth of which mesh with a toothed wheel mounted on an actuating member which is journalled for rotation in and passes sealingly through at least one cylinder wall, so as to extend transversely to the longitudinal axes of said cylinders, and which further includes at least one passage for supplying pressure fluid to the cylinder space between the pistons.
Background art Actuators of this kind are known through for instance EP A1 0 040 976 (Warnett) .and US A 4 087 074 (Massey et al) . An actuator of this kind forms a compact and reliable unit for controlling various industrial processes and different kinds of apparatus. Such an actuator is normally used to regulate valves, e.g. ball valves. In its simplest form, the actuator can, for example, rotate the actuating member through 90°, said member being connected to the valve slide, either directly or indirectly. The actuating member can be rotated against the action of a spring, whereupon, if the fluid pressure is relieved, the pistons are returned to their zero-position by means of springs arranged in the rack portions.
The pistons, however, can also be returned to their zero-position under the influence of fluid pressure, either in addition to the springs or in place of said springs, whereupon the cylinder space between the end- walls of the actuator and respective pistons is placed under pressure via passages arranged in the cylinder wall and the end-walls, while de-pressurizing the space between the pistons.
It is often found subsequent to mounting the actuator, that the terminal positions of the pistons need adjusting, particularly when the actuator is to be used for regulating valves.
Hitherto, it has only been possible to adjust the outer terminal positions of the pistons, i.e. the positions in which the space between the pistons is under pressure and the pistons are located in the vicinity of their respective adjacent end-walls.
In this respect, it is possible to make such adjust¬ ments with known actuators by arranging in one of the end-walls of the actuator, preferably centrally of said wall, an adjusting means in the form of a screw, which projects away from said end-wall, into the cylinder chamber.
Thus, if the surface of- the piston is located at a distance from the inner surface of the end-wall when said piston strikes against the screw, it is possible to adjust the stroke of the piston by turning the screw once or twice in one or the other direction. In practice, this normally corresponds to a 2-3 rotation of the actuating member.
At present there is no possibility of making a similar adjustment when the pistons are located in their fully retracted position, corresponding to the zero- position of the- actuating member.
Object of Invention The possibility of making adjustments when the actuating member is in its zero-position, subsequent to mounting the actuator, is often desirable, particularly when regulating ball valves. The least little clearance in this position unavoidably results in the undesirable
* leakage of fluid, which can have extremely difficult 5 consequences.
Brief Disclosure of the Invention
The present invention affords a simple and reliable solution to the aforementioned problem. Accordingly, in
10 its widest aspect the invention is mainly characterized in that one of the pistons is provided with means, e.g. a screw, which is arranged to engage the toothed rack portion of the other piston, so as to enable the pistons to be adjusted relative to one another in their fully
15 retracted position. In this respect, the length of the rack portion on respective pistons is adjusted so that in the zero-position of the actuating member there is a clearance between the outer end surface of the rack portion and the inner end surface of the opposing piston,
20 respectively.
The invention overcomes the prejudice that the pistons of an actuator' of the kind mentioned should not be touched. No previous mention has been made of inter¬ fering with the pistons, presumably because of the risk
25 of pressure fluid flowing over from that side of the piston which exhibits an overpressure in relation to the other side of the piston. It is possible, however, with the aid of present day sealing materials to arrange an adjusting device in the piston of the kind mentioned so
30 that there is no risk of pressure fluid flowing between the two sides of the piston, despite the possibility of actuating the adjusting means with the aid of a screw¬ driver or like device.
An adjusting means of the aforementioned kind enables
35 the zero-position of the actuating member to be adjusted between, for example, -3°. Consequently, an actuator according to the inven¬ tion enables the actuating member to be adjusted both in its zero-position and its fully rotated position - for example corresponding to a 90 rotation of about -3 or more.
In accordance with one embodiment of the invention preferred in practice, one end-wall of the actuator has arranged therein a closeable entry port arranged in line with the adjusting means, to enable activation of said means. The adjusting means is readily activated by intro¬ ducing a screwdriver, or like tool, through said entry port and making the aforementioned adjustment in the zero- position of the actuating member. Thus, when making the adjustment it is not necessary to remove the end-wall.
Brief Description of Drawing
An embodiment of the invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawing, the single Figure of which is a partially cut-away side view of an actuator according to the invention, in a position corresponding to the zero-position of the actuating member. A full piston stroke is depicted in chain lines.
Description of preferred embodiment
In the drawing, the reference 1 identifies a fluid pressure actuator. Although an actuator of the described and illustrated kind is normally operated pneumatically, hydraulically operated actuators also fall within the scope of the invention.
The actuator includes a cylinder 2 having an inner cylinder chamber 2a, which is defined at the ends thereof by end-walls 3, 4. As will be seen to the right of the Figure, the inner surface of the end-wall 4 is connected to a separate, sealed end portion 4a. Two pistons 5, 6 are arranged in the chamber 2a for movement towards and away from one another. Each of the pistons has arranged thereon an axially extending toothed rack portion 7 and 8, respectively, having respective teeth 7a and 8a which mesh with a toothed wheel mounted on an actuating member 10, which is journalled in two mutually opposite cylinder walls. For the purpose of supplying pressure fluid to the space between the pistons 5 and 6, there is provided a passage 11 having an orifice 11b. The passage extends to a connection 11a in the left-hand end-wall of the actuator. The pistons are returned by means of' thrust springs arranged in the rack portion of respective pistons. The thrust spring 15 accommodated in a bore 7a in the rack portion 7 is illustrated in the Figure.
Alternatively, or in addition thereto, the pistons can be returned by supplying pressure fluid, via passages not shown, to the space between respective pistons 5, 6 and adjacent end-walls 3 and 4, respectively.
The end-wall 4 has arranged therein a central bore 4c which accommodates an adjusting screw 16, which can be turned by means of a screwdriver. The adjusting screw 16 projects somewhat beyond the inner, sealed part 4a of the end-wall 4. This enables the stroke position of the actuating member to be adjusted in the outer terminal positions of the pistons 5, 6, for example an adjustment corresponding to a 90°-rotation of said member.
Adjustment of the zero-position of the actuating member is made possible by means of an adjusting screw 17, which is accommodated in a bore 6a in the piston 6. The adjusting screw 17 is arranged to engage the rack portion 7 of the opposing piston 5. Adjustments can be made, for example, up to -3° for the actuating member 10.
The adjusting screw 17 can be reached through a bore 4d in the end-wall 4. The bore is closed by means of a plug 18. The two adjusting screws 16, 17 and the plug 18, are provided with suitable sealing means.
Suitably, the adjusting screw 16 and the plug 18 are provided on the end-wall of the actuator which lacks means for connecting the actuator to a supply of pressure fluid.
An adjusting arrangement according to the invention can also be used in an actuator for, for example, 90° or n
180 -rotation of the actuating member 10, where return of the pistons 5, 6 from a full stroke is effected by means of pressure fluid introduced to the cylinder space 2a on both sides of respective pistons as an alternative to, or with the assistance of springs accommodated in the rack portions 7, 8, said pressure fluid being supplied through passages (not shown) having orifices (not shown) located in the end-walls 3 and 4, respectively. This will ensure that none of the passages interferes with any of the bores 4c or 4d accommodating the adjusting means 16 and the plug 18, respectively.
The invention can also be applied to modified embodiments of the lastmentioned.actuator, in which one of the end-walls 3 or 4 has been removed and replaced with an auxiliary actuator means (not shown) provided with a piston and associated piston rod, which projects into the cylinder chamber 2a. It is possible with the aid of such an auxiliary device to rotate the actuating member 10 stepwise between a plurality of distinct posi¬ ttiioonnss,, ffoorr eexxaammppllie corresponding to 0 , 90 and 180 - rotation thereof.
